June 3, 1994.
Commissioner of Customs,
Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC 20229.

    Dear Commissioner: Under the terms of section 204 of the 
Agricultural Act of 1956, as amended (7 U.S.C. 1854); and in 
accordance with the provisions of Executive Order 11651 of March 3, 
1972, as amended, you are directed to prohibit, effective on June 7, 
1994, entry into the United States for consumption and withdrawal 
from warehouse for consumption of wool textile products in Category 
443, produced or manufactured in the Former Yugoslav Republic of 
Macedonia and exported during the twelve-month period beginning on 
June 7, 1994 and extending through June 6, 1995, in excess of 80,800 
numbers.
    Imports charged to Category 443 for the period June 7, 1993 
through June 6, 1994, shall be charged against that level of 
restraint to the extent of any unfilled balance. In the event the 
limit established for that period has been exhausted by previous 
entries, such goods shall be subject to the level set forth in this

    The Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements has 
determined that this action falls within the foreign affairs 
exception of the rulemaking provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1).
      Sincerely,
Rita D. Hayes,
